X-Crescence CLXXII: Colors Of The Wind

[Valeria Kementari]

It so should have been Can You Feel the Love Tonight.

Valeria, how comfortable are you with StormxNamor ???

Comfortable enough. He's better than most candidates.

That story was so good that I'm actually on board with Val's Kitty/Stark pairing. Even a lecherous creep like Tony is better than Iceman.

PS have the Kitty Litter and the Husk fanbase joined forces yet? They have a common interest and a common... problem.

That story was stellar!

Why Kitty and Husk fanbase teamup? I'm all for it. Kitty and Husk should've been besties or even frenemies. but what's their common interest and problem? their faves' bad taste in men?

[LeonardEugenius]

Kitty shouldn't be allowed anywhere near the Illuminati. They're about making decisions, not waiting for other people to make them then jumping on board.

Common interest is that they're similar characters and both fanbases believe the good aspects of the characters aren't explored enough. Common problem is Jason Aaron.

I like Kitty when she isn't in a relationship with Colossus. The biggest problem I had with Whedon's Astonishing X-Men run was Colossus. I never liked his character and Kitty was great until she went all teenage angst all over again when Colossus made his return. It was a damn fantastically drawn and colored return by Cassaday and Martin, but still, Kitty is better off without Colossus. I relished the interaction between Emma and Kitty more. I could handle Kitty/Colossus, if they were just using each other for booty call, though.

This is too true. I want James Asmus to write them. He should totally take over WATXM. It would still be fun, but he wouldn't ruin everyone.

Just found out about the shooting at an elementary school in Connecticut

fo' shame, Leo. How can you speak so of the lovely Katherine Pryde?
But you're right, Kitty does not belong among the Illuminati - they were never about 'making decisions,' they were about hubris and that seemed fairly evident throughout the series. Every one of their missions was a dismal failure that ultimately came back to bite them in the ass (with the exception of booting the Beyonder out of the universe - but that'll backfire eventually as well).

Just read the article. Very sad

I'm very anti-Kitty. She's one of my least favorite characters. And I'm speaking about the new Illuminati, which seems to be much more proactive.

That would be amazing! I love Asmus. I'd also have a fill-in arc inbetween Aaron and Asmus written by Yost and Hopeless where they kill all of the dead weight.

holy shit.
just read about it... looks like at least ten children dead and ten others as well.
my god, such madness - a part of me is starting to hope the Mayan prediction of world's end is true

I'm thoroughly sickened by it.

Just awful.

18 children, 9 adults dead

[Bronze Badger]

Pocahantas is the worst one of all.

18 children, 9 adults dead

The number has gone up? That's crazy. It seems like a lot of the articles are lacking in details right now. I feel so badly for those little kids. Their parents must be losing their minds
